Fuggin Bizzy:What? He was clearly guilty, based on my own presupposition and the scattering of things I heard about the case on the Internet. This can't be right. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: trial-by-jury doesn't work.

Before the trial, I did no research, I only heard what the mainstream media reported, including the chopped up 911 call NBC played.

When the trial started, I listened to it every day at work, starting out rooting for the prosecution.

As the case went on, I started to realize that the case had been mischaracterized in the media and that there was in fact Reasonable Doubt. I saw that the prosecution was unable to establish a consistent narrative of what happened, and relied only on attacking Zimmerman's character and evoking emotion for Martin. I am sad that Martin is dead, it should not have happened. Both men made stupid mistakes that night. I don't know Zimmerman well enough to make a call on if he truly had ill-will in his heart. But I am happy a not guilty verdict was reached, because it means that evidence and the process of law have overridden appeals to emotion.

Irresistably stupid force collided with immovably stupid object. What is left is what could be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

Personally, I thought manslaughter would have been correct, but I wasn't on the jury. You can't pack heat then go around in a situation that may lead to a confrontation. In addition, you can't jump a dude planning to beat his ass and assume you will come out all right either.

Thus, Florida retains its tag. As someone once said here, Florida is to stupid what Japan is to fetish.

The entire goal of this media circus and acquittal was to incite Manson's Helter Skelter. That's why the DHS bought all the bullets, obviously. It's really easy to connect the dots and see that this is just a classist control measure.

Didn't they find Zimmerman liable in the wrongful death suit. They at least recognized he was negligent in his actions.
